Hailing from Dehradun, Neha K Bisht was recently awarded Publicist of the Year award. After completing her schooling from Dehradun, she moved to Mumbai to pursue her graduation in mass media. While in college she started working as an assistant director on small projects to learn more about the industry. On choosing her career, she said, "I spent three years in the entertainment industry as a creative director. Aged 21 years I was a creative director on the show Seeta Aur Geeta on NDTV Imagine. It was soon after the show that I realised I would want to take up a brand manager’s role and eventually have my own enterprise that would lend support to emerging and existing brands to stand out in the otherwise cluttered market.”
About the struggles she faced she said,“My first struggle was to fight the mindset of people who felt I was wrong in leaving a flourishing job and entering an unknown territory. But I have always been clear about my vision so I just looked forward to my ultimate dream and somehow all these decisions seemed like baby steps in accomplishing it.”
Neha dedicated her award to her mother for effortlessly playing the role of a mother and father while always believing in her. “My brother too has been my constant support along with my team which tirelessly worked towards the company’s progress in the right direction.”
